Is there anyone in a Denso SC430 that would swap w/Mule?

Ask cicua if he either want to trade straight up with you, or if MULE want the HSV, you take the SC430, and cicua takes the SUPRA.
That's pretty much the only option I see right now.
 
I am open to suggestions, I have not even run in that Petronas yet.
 
I hate my time zone SO MUCH. Should be able to be around more in the lead up.

Haven't seen 36s yet, but I've only had one leetle practice session at Fuji so far. The combined Triplets and Pre-season race starts (2 and 3 am) along with some late night out-of hours work this week really knocked me around, and less interaction time to boot.

Initial race at Indy was woeful for me, since with our room reset, I wound up with default tune (warmup one vanished), and more importantly, gearbox! If I hadn't thought of it, I would have started on S3s from the break in at Laguna :dopey:. Was glad I decided to preset it to spec, should have plugged in Dom's tune as well.

Had fun at the back anyway, but lag, draft, and my own idiocy cost H - had a maxima mea culpa there. Also a spin.

GVS was waaay better, but had to pit and park as we'd run over the two hour mark.

Well chuffed to see Simon in - welcome back!

Desperate for extra speed, I tried jacking up my controller sensitivity from the default 0 to the max 7... and now I'm wondering why I didn't do it before :lol: It only gained me a tenth off of my PB, but it made me a lot more consistent, so I could easily hit low 1:37's consistently whereas before I was averaging mid to high 1:37's. Being able to go full lock instantly just provides a lot more control in general. For example, as soon as I feel the back of the car beginning to slide out, I can neutralize it instantly with a tap of the stick, unlike before where there was a slight delay meaning I would catch the slide later losing more time.

I'll probably end up in D2 anyways though :lol:
 
Just hit a low 37 and you should be good. Then it's all about your pace over the length of the event. The results are going to be really interesting. There should be people finishing all over the place unpredictably from qualifying.

Welcome to the D2 Club, the hip place for us mere mortals. :sly:

Haven't seen my other Z teammate around at all. Guess it'll be the Jason and Rich show once again. :lol:

Your team mate was running with us last night for a couple of hours , there will be 3 of you 👍
 
Where will low 39's get me? Tail end of D2?

EDIT: Meant to ask earlier if anyone has/can upload a hotlap around Fuji. Maybe help me with how to take sector 3, as I'm pretty much lost there, and I'm sure that's where I'm losing the most time.

Also, I'd sooner keep the Supra then take an SC430. I stuck myself with it, and unless there's a Calsonic GT-R on offer, I'll stick with it.

What's really hard (for me at least) is to nail a good lap. It's so many "make or brake" corners. Hard to nail them all.
It's defenetly T4, T5, the tight chicane (especially the exit), and then the two following turns, I believe it's number 12 and 13 or 14.

I'd be really happy with a low 37 in quali..

It's the final sector for me. I was at the end of the 2nd sector in 50.8 and 51.1, on both laps I messed up the final corner,I broke and turned in to early, lost all exit speed. Really mad with myself. I should of been posting low 37's.
Nevermind, I just hope I make division 2 now.
 
Denilson
Ok, so I'm doomed then. Thanks! ;)
Good to know though..

I'm seeing tires wear pretty linearly on the HSV, starting from low-ish 37's to 40's in the end. Am I right in suspecting that's what you are experiencing...? :sly:

No. ;). Yes..
 
Too many of you are negative thinkers! There will be as many spots in D1 as there will be in D2, there's no time cut off. :)

As for lap times I'v done a 35.4 with the GT-R, and last night ran the Lexus and Z with Doms tunes, albeit with a few tweaks to the diff amd brake bias to account for the tyre wear. I ran the exactttt same lap time with both of them, 35.7 something. There was still some left in both of them, but I found the Z to be the hardest to get the pace out of. I'd tried the HSV a while a go and got a .8, but I'll have another go later.

Steve do you want me to upload a lap?

Sorry guys, don't mean to sound negative but it hasn't been fixed 100%.

We had 14 in for our DTM championship last night - 45 minutes & 2 rooms to get race 1 started. Race 2 - pretty straight forward.

About 5 guys were getting black / frozen screens or disconnections....

But - room 2 was alot better with mics off, which you guys do as standard, so there'll probablly be less issues, pretty sure it's not 100% fixed though.
 
Josh: You can't join any lobby or should I start up a new lobby?

H: Yeah, we'll keep an eye out! Thanks for sharing. 👍
 
I don't know you know how you get the standard music when you can see dealership and everything that just cuts out so that is just weird but the game loads up fast but I can't do anything online

Bitterly disappointed!! I had achieved 36.7 PB, which I was happy with, and hoped to do 36.9 on qualifying. So 37.4 is extremely disappointing. D2 for sure, of course.

I'm going to make a wild guess and say I'll end up being 18th for qualifying! :lol: Let's see if I get it right...
